Our Mission
A heart within
It started with coffee…but Baraka is so much more.
It’s about creating a space, creating a place where a community can have a sense of belonging, of peace and of welcoming.
A place where people can find comfort, support and friendship.
We believe that is these kinds of places and these kinds of relationships that give a community its heart.
the community
In the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives, it can sometimes be easy to forget that we belong to something bigger – our community.
We want to be visible within the communities in which we work so that everyone feels a great sense of belonging with no fear of judgment.
Incredible experiences, skills and diversity exists within communities and we want to help in bringing this together.
Helping us all...
For us, helping us all has to start with involving us all.
Baraka is a values-led social business that has a commitment to reinvesting profits made into activities, services and support that helps the communities within which we work.
Whether it’s creating jobs, giving support in times of challenge or just being a friend, Baraka is dedicated to developing solutions that can last forever.
Help comes in many different shapes and sizes. It comes from committing to support local and fair-trade, from facilitating the business community to invest their time and efforts and creating partnerships to make us all stronger.
Love to Live
What a question to be able to ask: what makes you love to live…
Asking this question helps us understand a communities' needs and aspirations and then enables us to stand together with them to achieve it.
